It’s bullshit doublespeak that really means “we’re cutting costs (in the short term, the only term that matters)”. Reducing headcount doesn’t reduce the workload, it just means each remaining person has to do more work.

I guess you can have people who do things that deliver little tangible business value and you scrap those projects, that would lead to focus on areas that are most valuable (from an exec POV) and then you scramble the teams some and let them adjust to needs in the process, aka agile.

Sure they’re trying to sell a bad thing as a good thing but that doesn’t mean that’s it’s not the right thing for them (execs).
